The clue is in the name! They take in and out and your Disco will already accept one.

The electrics are a slightly different matter, but are apparently very easy to do yourself. Can be bought from various site sponsors etc.

The towbars themselves seem to fetch circa £100-£180 on here / ebay (from memory) - someone will correct all of the above if I'm wrong! D4 XS MY12 Galway

Doesn't need fitting, it simply "plugs in" - you just have to buy one first, plenty out there though, like this: -

Unless your D4 already has them, you'll probably need the electrics fitting, not a difficult DIY job if you've got some tools though.

Edit; ebay link has nothing to do with me, just posted it as an example. Clive

If the D4 has a reversing camera, isn't there also the small matter of getting tow assist enabled? Assuming one wants bendy reversing lines etc.

Also is it a software setting that disables the rear pdc or is that just electrical?
